2023 March Madness 1st round bracket breakdown: West Region
No. 5 Saint Mary鈥檚 vs. No. 12 VCU
Saint Mary鈥檚 is an interesting team. They are a defensive-minded bunch led by their guards in Logan Johnson and freshman Aidan Mahaney. They finished the year with a 14-2 record in the WCC.
This is a very sneaky VCU team. Like Saint Mary鈥檚, the Rams are defensive-minded. But they鈥檙e one of the hottest teams in the country. This is a squad that has not lost in over a month and do not be surprised if that trend continues throughout the tournament.
Prediction: VCU
